This is one of the reasons this forum is so valuable. Racers helping fellow racers, and a thousand years combined experience. In some ways the Internet has been a pain for society, but when it's used for good, it's awesome. Glad you found your problem.

now my fresh rebuild is rich...I mean way rich. only thing I didn't do was to repair the well plugs. im swapping in a gm distributor too as I believe our import unit might not even be providing enough spark to fire the mixture...the carb might be just fine...

With the primary rods removed you must block off the plunger well and reduce main jets, to like a pair of 66's. When the well plugs seep it has little effect when the engine is running. It's when it sits, it will drain the fuel bowl.
